The Peter Barry Chartered Surveyor Team…

The Peter Barry Chartered Surveyor Team were selected by my neighbours as I was about to build a wrap around ground floor extension. We agreed that Shaun Blake and his team David Brazier & Joanne Bartlett assist both parties attain the required Party Wall Award. The whole team engaged were absolutely brilliant providing timely responses to all my queries. Despite being engaged just before Christmas 2024 the PWA was achieved in a timely manner effectively on 6th January 2025! All parties were very happy with the service provided and would certainly recommend their services if required for the future.
The service was provided in a very professional manner via polite, courteous and respectful communication.
Our sincere thanks goes out to David & Joanne as both did an excellent job throughout to fulfill our requests in a timely manner. Cheers!

Excellent experience with Peter Barry and Callum

Our experience with Peter Barry and in particular our surveyor, Callum, was nothing short of exceptional. He helped us navigate through a very complicated and stressful case speedily and comprehensively. Thank you so much for your hard work on this. We really appreciate the time and consideration you took to make sure that everything (in the face of all the bonkers chaos) was done properly and with integrity. Cannot recommend highly enough

Took the worry out of Party Wall agreement

James Merewether helped us through a party wall agreement successfully whilst finding a cost effective solution to what we became a technical dispute in the eyes of the law.

We had excellent communication and dedication from Amrita taking my initial call through to James working with a 3rd party surveyor to successful completion of the award.

Probate Valuation

I needed a probate valuation on my late father's home. It was not a straight forward matter as the house was being sold at more than the probate value determined in 2022 by another firm of surveyors.
Steve Hobbs of Peter Barry understood the situation and prepared a valuation that was agreed/accepted by the District Valuer.

First time buyer novice .

It was really an opening door for me when my friend recommended Mr. Breeze as a survivor. I was worried where or even how I was going to find someone who could I rely to take me through all the dos and dons of a survey. He was straight forward, patient and explained everything in Layman's terms as were his colleagues. Thank you so much to Mr. Breeze and Peter Barry Surveyors.

Matthew completed the process/ survey…

Matthew completed the process/ survey for a party wall agreement for my loft conversion. Firstly, he is refreshingly open and honest to talk to, I felt so much more confident about the process after speaking with him. The best aspect of his work is that he is swift, highly professional and incredibly competent. All the skills and competences you need when undertaking the tricky task of a lift conversion on a period property. I would highly recommend him!
